Pressure Like a Tidal Wave

Zhou Liang shook his head, no longer dwelling on such matters, and instead focused on training.

"Ha! Ha! Ha!"

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Thunderous roars rang out one after another from the neatly arranged ranks.

Every Roar was accompanied by a Stepping strike, and two peculiar forces began to emerge.

Immense Soul Power pressure gathered before Zhou Liang. With every Stepping strike, it grew heavier, not only compressing the air ahead but also condensing Zhou Liang's own Soul Power.

This was one of Zhou Liang's recent discoveries: the density of his own condensed Soul Power far surpassed that of Soul Masters at the same level.

This was all due to the divine ability of Stepping. It was not merely an offensive technique, but also a cultivation method.

Under such pressure, one could condense one's Soul Power, gradually increasing its density.

This effect reminded Zhou Liang of Sea God's Light. However, he was not yet strong enough, so it probably could not match Sea God's Light's effects.

The power of this divine ability would rise along with Zhou Liang's strength.

This ever-increasing pressure would continuously improve the degree to which Soul Power was condensed.

More concentrated Soul Power allowed Zhou Liang to unleash power stronger than that of Soul Masters at the same level while using less Soul Power.

The other divine ability was Command.

This divine ability stimulated his Soul Power and mental strength with every shout, blending them into sound waves that surged forward.

At the same time, his mental strength enhanced him, allowing him to instantly erupt with even greater power. It could also cleanse the mind; every shout shattered all the filth within his heart.

Thus, ever since making this discovery, Zhou Liang practiced Command every day to cleanse his inner self.

And the Fusion of Command and Stepping gave the pressure from every direction mental intimidation, along with a cleansing effect.

"This effect is even more miraculous than Sea God's Light. If I could train in this environment every day, my strength would surely improve at an incredible rate!"

Zhou Liang's eyes suddenly lit up at the thought. He then called out to the two girls training in another part of the grounds.

"Xiao Wu! Yan Yan!"

Upon hearing him, the two opened their eyes. Seeing that it was Zhou Liang, they quickly got up and answered.

After exchanging a glance, Xiao Wu and Dugu Yan hurried over.

"Xiao Liang, what is it?" Dugu Yan stopped before him and asked.

"Xiao Liang, are you done training?" Xiao Wu asked curiously.

"No. I just discovered a characteristic of my Martial Soul, and I want you two to help me verify it!"

After shaking his head, Zhou Liang told them about his earlier idea.

"Wow! Xiao Liang, your Martial Soul can do something like that? That's amazing!" Xiao Wu said in surprise.

"Indeed. Even Grandpa never mentioned such a miraculous effect." Yan Yan also shook her head in astonishment.

"After all, it's a Mutated Martial Soul. It only gained this ability after I developed it repeatedly." Zhou Liang smiled at the two of them.

"Come on, let's try it! If it works, the three of us will grow stronger very quickly!"

"Alright!" Both girls nodded.

At this time, Dugu Yan was over thirteen years old and had reached Soul Power Level 28. Although Zhou Liang's Soul Power Level was only 26, his highly condensed Soul Power pressure was still effective on her.

Xiao Wu only had Soul Power in the teens, so the effect would naturally be even better on her.

Once the two girls were in position, Zhou Liang nodded to them. After they replied that they were ready, he stomped heavily forward!

"Ha!"

A shout accompanied the spreading Soul Power pressure, enveloping Xiao Wu and Dugu Yan from all directions without a single blind spot.

This pressure only made Dugu Yan somewhat strained. She furrowed her brows deeply and activated her Soul Power to support herself.

But Xiao Wu beside her had a much harder time enduring it. The immense pressure made sweat stream down her face.

Soon, sweat covered her entire face, and damp patches showed through her clothes.

After all, there was a whole major level of Soul Power between them, not to mention the power of the divine abilities involved.

Seeing Xiao Wu struggling, Zhou Liang stopped shouting, and his Stepping footwork came to a halt as well.

The pressure instantly eased. Xiao Wu's body swayed, but fortunately Dugu Yan reached out and steadied her. Though Dugu Yan also staggered slightly, she was in far better condition than Xiao Wu.

Zhou Liang let out a breath of relief and hurried over, reaching out with both hands to support their slender waists.

"Are you alright?" Zhou Liang asked the two of them with concern.

"I'm fine. Xiao Wu is a little weak." Dugu Yan shook her head at Zhou Liang, then looked toward Xiao Wu.

"Thank you!" Xiao Wu said to Dugu Yan as soon as she caught her breath.

"Mm." Dugu Yan nodded without saying anything else.

"Xiao Wu, the gap between your strength and mine is too great. Stand farther away first. Once you've adjusted to the power, slowly move closer to me," Zhou Liang said after giving it some thought.

"Alright!" Xiao Wu nodded. At that moment, she found it rather strange. Once Zhou Liang's hand touched her waist, she had recovered remarkably quickly.

She straightened herself, stepped out of Zhou Liang's embrace, walked some distance back, and nodded to him.

"Yan Yan, you should step back a little too! Once you've adapted, move forward bit by bit," Zhou Liang said, turning to Dugu Yan.

"Alright!" Dugu Yan nodded, then also stepped out of Zhou Liang's embrace and moved back a short distance.

After seeing that both girls were ready, Zhou Liang returned to his original position and began using the two divine abilities once more.

Pressure like a tidal wave spread out again, though it gradually weakened with increasing distance.

This time, both Xiao Wu and Dugu Yan withstood the pressure. Though it was extremely difficult, they gritted their teeth and persevered.

Once they felt they could endure the pressure, they moved forward little by little, stopping only when they could no longer bear it.

After some time, the two reached their limits one after another and each retreated a distance.

Zhou Liang quickly stopped and rushed over, once again supporting the two girls with his hands.

At the same time, he took the opportunity to use the ability of his third Martial Soul to help them recover.

His third Martial Soul, which currently had no Soul Rings, did not possess any area-wide buff abilities.

For Zhou Liang to make its two recovery abilities take effect on others, he had to touch them.

"How is it? Do you feel a little better?" Zhou Liang asked as he supported their slender waists.
